Ceraria fruticulosa

The stems are red-brown and develop peeling bark and thick roots. These can be staged to make a great succulent bonsai.

Clumping, very succulent, greenish-white "V" shaped plants from outer space. (Well, no, not really. Just checking to see if you're actually reading all this!)

Cotyledon ladismithensis variegate

The variegated "Bears Claw" (syn.: Cotyledon tomentosa variegate) succulent is a relatively easy to grow plant, though a bit slow, making a great addition to a succulent dish garden. Yellow and green variegation. Available late spring, early summer.

Stacked olive-green leaves with white edges. Common name: Aanteel-poprosie. Who said common names are easier than the botanical names???

Crassula columella

Another one of those "old-timey" plants. At least they seem that way to us since we've had one or two of these plants around for many, many years. Quite easy to grow if you remember not to over-water in the Summer when they're taking their rest. They're from the Winter rainfall area on the West Coast of South Africa, up to Namibia. And what's not to like with these columns of tightly packed, velvety leaves?

Back again, but in very limited supply. A hybrid of Cremnophila nutans and Sedum furfuraceum, the fat leaves have a "scaley" appearance, undoubtedly the reason for its cultivar name. Easy to grow. Provide a porous potting mix, protection from hard frosts and bright light with adequate air flow.
